I'm not gonna try it; *you* try it

Comment: I searched your database and didn't find an answer to a particular problem
that thousands of bloggers and other database driven websites are facing.

It seems innocuous but without being an expert on computer hacking, I
can't tell if what is happening is indeed a problem.

Basically, the following link appears in comments on thousands of blogs.
It has the ability to bypass security measures and it's very frustrating
for the website owner. Many don't even know it's happening because they
slack off cleaning their site up.

I won't post the link here, because I don't know what it will do on your
systems, so I'll post a link to all the results on Google.com for the same
search string.

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&l...suc.us%2Fj.php

You'll see all of the 84K results for the script call that lists this
domain above.

Has anyone else written in about this?

I'd like to know who or what Jonny is.

Is this true?

Comment: What really happens when you mix brake fluid and chlorox?
Recently read this causes lots of smoke when mixed together.

Comment: I heard that if you put a billiard pool ball in your mouth, the
jaw is shaped so that it will fit in, but in order to get it back out, the
jaw has to be cracked. Is this true in any way shape or form? I'd rather
not try for myself! :o)

Personally, I'm much more interested in where you'd find a nutcracker large enough to fit around a human jaw...

...or why someone would be stupid enough to put a billiard ball in their mouth in the first place.

I once heard somewhere that Bellevue Hospital in NY has so many idiots showing up with pool balls stuck in their mouths that they have designed a widget that slips around behind the ball so that it can be extracted.

the "jonny script" they are referring to is apparently a malicious javascript that redirects users to a site that generates money via clickthroughs.
Judging by the google hits, it is indeed prolific.

Just saying.

Comment: Is it true that putting grapes in a microwave oven will make it
shoot fireballs?

[ToadMagnet]

Perhaps ... if you turn it on ....

[carter108]

Maybe if they are covered in steel wool and gasoline. Mythbusters anyone?

Are they suggesting that the microwave causes a physical reaction in the grape and exploding grapes fly out ? Or is it more like vending machines, if you pay your microwave in grapes it rewards you with fireballs ? Perhaps there is a slot for them ?

Hmmm, maybe they are thinking of pickles.

Yep, a properly prepared grape in a microwave does indeed create sparks and/or fireballs. It doesn't "shoot" them though.

Take a grape and cut it nearly in half leaving a small piece of skin holding the two halves together. Place the grape on a plate and microwave on high. "BUZZ-ZAP-POP", a couple flashes of light and a bit of smoke. Very entertaining.

Google "grape cut microwave sparks".
EDIT: Ooops, didn't notice that the OP is months old. Please ignore this post and resume your normal web acitvities.

Comment: My brother said that he was in class, and the teacher said that
it takes the same amount of pressure to bite through the joint in your
pinky fingure as it does to bite through a raw carrot. I'm not man enough
to try, and so I was wondering your ideas/ opinions.
